Toy Drive: Bringing Smiles to Colombian Children in New York and Connecticut

The Colombian Consulate in New York activated the “Playful for Colombian children residing in the Big Apple and Connecticut.” The campaign consists of collecting toys for them.

If you have a new or used toy that is in good condition, the consulate invites you to donate it and give a smile to a Colombian child.

The campaign will end on November 30 and you can go to the headquarters of the Colombian Consulate in New York, between 2:00 and 5:00 pm to donate the toys. It is located at 10East 46th Street New York, NY, 10017.

If you have questions or want more information about this initiative, you can call 1-888-7643326 or send a message to [email protected].
